Pre-Operation (continued)

INITIAL PRODUcT cLEANING PROcEDURE

The dispenser must be cleaned before the first use. To maintain a
hygienic environment within your water dispenser and prevent potential
formation (growth) of bacteria, we strongly recommend regular cleaning
(i.e. every 4 months). A cleaning kit can be ordered online at
www.homedepot.com.
□ Make sure the lower compartment storage door (I) is open (this will
prevent the activation of the water pump).
□ Make sure the power cord (R) is plugged into an electrical outlet.
□ Using a clean jug or container, pre-mix 50 ml (1.7 ozs) of water
dispenser cleaner with 2 L (0.5 gal) of hot water.
□ Place the jug/container on the floor of the bottle storage
compartment.
□ Insert the stainless steel straw (K) into the cleaning solution, (make
sure the jug/container does not tip over) and close the storage door
(I). The water pump will start automatically and draw the cleaning
solution into the dispenser reservoirs. When all the cleaning
solution has been drawn, the pump will continue to operate for
approximately 20 seconds and stop automatically, followed by a
flashing yellow light (add water) condition. This is normal. Simply
open the storage door (I) to cancel the flashing yellow light.
□ Allow the cleaning solution to sit inside the dispenser for 20
minutes.
□ Place the jug/container under the dispensing spigot (J) and press
both the hot (E) and cold (G) dispensing buttons until the cleaning
solution stops flowing. Discard the cleaning solution.
□ Using the jug/container, drain the remaining cleaning solution from
the internal reservoirs by unscrewing the drain cap and removing
the drain plug from the drain valve (O) located at the back of the
unit. Discard the cleaning solution.
□ Re-install the drain plug and drain cap on the drain valve (O) and
flush the system using 2 liters of clean water only - no cleaning
solution - following the same basic steps outlined above. Place a
jug or container under the drain valve (O) and remove drain cap and
drain plug allowing the rinse water to drain.
□ When the rinse water stops flowing, re-install the drain plug and
drain cap on the drain valve (O) and tighten. The cleaning process is
now complete.
